They must identify users’ and/or clients’ needs. They must make changes, as required by their clients and/or users. They must have strong consulting skills and have good problem-solving skills.

Web Developer Reviews

Q: What is it like working as a Web Developer?

Web Developer in Paris:

Pros: It's intellectually stimulating and my particular skills and interests enable me to combine design and development. I enjoy creating things. Office culture tends to be more relaxed than in other fields such as finance etc. We are allowed relative freedom as to how to conduct or work.

Cons: Working constantly in front of a screen can get physically and mentally tiring sometimes, it makes it more difficult to get into personal projects (in front of the screen too ). Very male oriented field, the lack of balance can be often be felt in office culture.
